Amazing views
Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.
This is our home, but there is plenty of space and acres of nothing around us. We offer private camping (only one booking per night) This area is high desert which means cold nights and warm days so pack layers as we can have a 40 degree change in temperature in a matter of hours. However, we have panoramic views of mountains, sunsets and sunrise. Minimal light pollution for stargazing. We are 22 miles from Albuquerque which is perfect for stargazing.We are a secluded, one site camp. Our home is 22 miles west of Albuquerque NM. Just 4 miles from i40. Adjacent to Navajo reservation where “Breaking Bad” was filmed. Hundreds of acres of naturalized land. Panoramic view of mountains and unobstructed view of the night sky. Beautiful sunrises, sunsets and starry nights. We would love to share our homestead with you. Come unplug, Safe. Everybody welcome. Most of your questions are answered in this listing. Text me for any additional concerns. I may not respond after 8pm.

Travel time....west bound and down.
"Give me land lots of land with the strary sky above....." Great location just a few minutes off the highway with a nice 360 degree sky view of the stars and surrounding area. Hosts were informative and great to talke to. Nice fire ring with a supply of wood. A beautiful setting for the sunrise. Would return when in the area again. Thanks Jeanie for a great stay over.

Absolutely wonderful! Easy to find and set up for a night stay - the weather was clear so the Mountain views were beautiful. Would definitely stay again.

The ability to instantly book, saved us as we were on the road on Christmas Eve, looking for a restful place to set up so we could wake up to a calm Christmas morning. Brian helped us navigate to the back area with a fire pit, as we are in a 34ft 5th wheel. It's a 90 degree turn, just past their home. The kids had a blast running around in the high desert, offering a much needed respite from making a trip across the country.

Awesome camp ground
We had a wonderful time at star gazer ranch. The hosts were extremely nice and hospitable. The land and scenery were beautiful. Plenty of room for camping and great night views of the stars. I would definitely recommend staying there.

Star Gazer paradise!
We loved tent camping at Star Gazer Ranch. We stayed 2 nights, had a camp fire both nights with firewood provided by our generous hosts. The second night our hosts brought us a large piece of cake and hung out and chatted with us for a couple hours at sunset by the fire with us it was a beautiful evening on beautiful land with wonderful people thank you.
